Yahweh Will Save
12 The oracle of the word of Yahweh concerning Israel.
Thus declares Yahweh who (A)stretches out the heavens, (B)lays the foundation of the earth, and (C)forms the spirit of man within him, 2 “Behold, I am going to make Jerusalem a (D)cup [a]that causes reeling to all the peoples all around. Now the one in siege against Jerusalem will also be against (E)Judah. 3 But it will be in that day, that I will make Jerusalem a heavy (F)stone for all the peoples; all who heave it up will be (G)severely [b]injured. And all the (H)nations of the earth will be gathered against it. 4 In that day,” declares Yahweh, “I will strike every horse with bewilderment and his rider with madness. But I will open my eyes to watch over the house of Judah, while I strike every horse of the peoples with blindness. 5 Then the clans of Judah will say in their hearts, ‘[c]A strong support for us are the inhabitants of Jerusalem through Yahweh of hosts, their God.’

Zechariah 12:1-5
American Standard Version
12 The [a]burden of the word of Jehovah concerning Israel.
Thus saith Jehovah, who stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him: 2 Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of reeling unto all the peoples round about, and [b]upon Judah also [c]shall it be in the siege against Jerusalem. 3 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all the peoples; all that burden themselves with it shall be sore wounded; and all the nations of the earth shall be gathered together against it. 4 In that day, saith Jehovah, I will smite every horse with terror, and his rider with madness; and I will open mine eyes upon the house of Judah, and will smite every horse of the peoples with blindness. 5 And the chieftains of Judah shall say in their heart, The inhabitants of Jerusalem are my strength in Jehovah of hosts their God.
